Customers are positive about the great protection, good fit, and ease of use offered by the Vectros Protective Bumper. Many appreciate its lightweight design and the improved grip it provides for their MacBook Air. However, some customers found the installation somewhat challenging and noted that the bumper adds a bit of bulk to the device. Overall, the positive feedback on protection and ease of use outweighs the minor concerns about installation and added size.

The case is a little hard to install. I like how they include an insert to protect the aluminum. A Very good case overall.

I like the outside shell w/shock-absorbing ridges (I give a 5) but thought the scratch shields (I give a 1) poorly afix to the shell and difficult to use. And overall way over-priced. I only "recommend" because there is nothing else available for shock absorbing protection rather than cosmetic protection.

TheThule - Vectros Protective Bumper case offers great protection for my MackBook Air. Yes, it adds a little weight to the the extremely light Air, but its worth it. The "peace of mind" protection is worth it.

A little bulky but excellent protection. I know some people by MacBooks because they are thin...if that's the case this is not for you but if you want to protect your investment than it does the job!

It has served its purpose so far of protecting my MAC. I wish it had come in some nice girl colors without having to order online.

This is the perfect solution if you want something to actually protect your laptop. So sturdy and safe. I feel much better now having the laptop carried around on a daily basis.

Purchased this case for a new MacBook Air. It fits nicely and seems to offer good protection. I hope we never have to find out if it really will protect it from a 3 1/2 ft drop!

This is the second Thule cover that we have bought for our Mac Air Laptops (we presently own three as a family). They are a bit bulky but offer a lot more protection for the laptop. My husband really liked his so we bought this second one for our daughter about to head off to college. They last longer and are more durable than the Speck covers which is the one that I have on my Mac Air.

Safe Protection for my Mac

The Thule Vectros bumper is a nice addition to help keep my MacBook Air safe. It was easy to assemble around my Mac. The only difficulty I had with the bumper was the top "optional" piece that goes under the case and protects the top portion (flat part) of the MacBook moves around. You have to be careful that the protective plastic on the top of the MacBook doesn't move around. Other than that, I'm very pleased and for the cost, it was worth it.

The case made my laptop considerably heavier, which took some getting used to. It feels nice and secure and I no longer worry about it slipping from my hands.

I am always on the fence when evaluating a laptop protection purchase. How much do I want to invest to insure the computer? Though pricey, this case has protected the laptop while in the field as advertised. I would not venture to put the case through its paces, unnecessarily, but I imagine it will be valuable for the duration of the laptop's life cycle.

I looked at several different stores with no luck. All I could find were soft bags or "hard cases" that really only protected from scratches on my MacBook Air. When I saw this product, it was exactly what I wanted. It was very easy to install and I now feel much more relaxed when traveling with my laptop and very confident that it is secure.

It does a great job protecting the MacAir if you drop it on a hard surface. The only drawback is that it adds weight and size to the computer.

This case looks cool, but doesn't fit perfectly, it's a good fit, but it takes a lot to wiggle it into place and it just feels like it will come lose with any heavy movement, etc. It hasn't yet but it's not really left the house or the desk at this point... It is very cool looking and very unique but I would have like it better if the clear center pieces were part of the actual case and not 2 "sleeves" that you have to place. I understand this gives you the option to leave the case and not have the clear protectors, but isn't that why we buy protective cases? anyway, it is a so-so case, if I had it to do over I would have gone for something else...
